Prohibited Trading Practices

Updated over 3 weeks ago

To maintain a fair, transparent, and professional trading environment, the following activities are strictly prohibited on all XPips accounts.

Engaging in any of these practices will result in immediate disqualification, without eligibility for payouts or refunds.


1. Account Sharing or Third-Party Trading

Accounts must be traded only by the registered account holder.

Allowing another person to trade on your behalf, including friends, family members, signal providers, or money managers, is not permitted. This includes giving access to login credentials or granting remote access.


2. Using Account Passing Services

Using external services or individuals to pass challenges, manage drawdowns, or secure payouts is strictly forbidden.

Any pattern suggesting outsourced trading or commercial passing services will result in immediate account termination.


3. Hedging Across Accounts or Within the Same Account

Hedging to offset risk across multiple XPips accounts, or opening opposing positions on the same account to neutralize exposure, is not allowed.

This includes using correlated instruments or coordinated trades designed to eliminate risk artificially.


4. Tick Scalping or Latency Arbitrage

Trading strategies that exploit price feed delays, execution latency, or quote discrepancies are prohibited.

This includes entering and exiting trades within extremely short timeframes to capture price mismatches rather than genuine market movement.


5. High-Frequency or Toxic Order Flow

Placing a high volume of rapid-fire orders that do not reflect normal trading behavior is not allowed.

This includes strategies that overwhelm execution systems or generate risk-free outcomes through excessive order placement.


6. Server Overload or Order Spamming

Submitting an unusually large number of orders, modifications, or cancellations in a short period of time with the intent or effect of stressing platform infrastructure is strictly prohibited.

Such behavior may impact execution quality for other traders and will not be tolerated.


7. Trading From Inconsistent Locations Without Approval

Trading activity must be consistent with your registered location and typical device usage.

Logging in from multiple countries, IP addresses, or devices without prior approval may be flagged for security and integrity review.


Enforcement Notice

XPips actively monitors trading behavior, platform usage, and access patterns.

Any violation of the above rules will lead to immediate disqualification, including:

  • Account termination

  • Profit removal

  • Denial of payouts

No appeals will be accepted for breaches involving prohibited activities.
